But which velour is the right one for me? What is the difference between the various fabric groups, what is a jacquard fabric, what is a mohair? To help you understand our velours and gain an even deeper insight into our collection, we invite you on a journey through the wonderful world of velvety velour fabrics.
Fabrics
The classification is not an indicator of the quality of the respective material. Each fabric has different properties that may be important to the individual customer. Further information on material composition, grammages and finishes such as special weaves, digital prints or stain protection can be found in our fabric manual and care booklet.
Differences in materials
Needs are different. Our velours are made from synthetic fibers, natural fibers or a blend. Find out the differences here.
Synthetic fiber
Synthetic fibers are particularly robust and easy to care for. As dirt cannot penetrate synthetic fibers, it can almost always be removed. In addition, velour made from synthetic fibers is significantly cheaper than velour made from natural fibers. The velvets from fabric groups 61, 63, 65 and 64 Happy Velvet, for example, are synthetic fiber velvets and are suitable for all those who want a robust and durable sofa cover, for example if pets or small children live in the household.
Natural fibers
Natural fibers are all fibers of natural origin. Natural fibers are more sensitive to stains than synthetic fibers and are therefore often provided with additional stain protection in our fabric collection. In the Bretz collection, velvets made from natural fibers include, for example, Vintage Velvet and Bohème Vintage Velvet fabric groups 64 and 65, both made from viscose. Also in fabric group 70 is the mohair velour made of pure mohair.
Blended fabrics
Blended fabrics are often a great alternative to pure viscose velvets. By adding other yarns, the viscose yarn is “supported” and is therefore much less prone to pressure marks. Viscose blended velour fabrics are, for example, those in fabric categories 66 and 67.
